  1. Here are a few to look at. https://www.amazon.com/Prime-Seating-Leather-Truck-Suspension/dp/B00BMHEZCY Bill
  2. Welcome to the forum. Glad you got it straighten out. Bill
  3. There is a possibility the only thing wrong is some debris in the sealing ring on the valve. With everything drained and rinsed take the valve apart and look. It should be possible to loosen the valc top without damaging the tank seal by using a impact wrench to break the top loose. Put a dab of anti seize on the threads when you go back together. Bill
  4. Unfortunately, if you have no records you should assume it needs to be done. Bill
  5. Welcome to the forum. The place you are staying is just east of Glacier Meadow RV Park where we stayed while exploring the eastern entrance/side of the park. Have a great trip. Both Whitefish and Columbia Falls have some good restaurants. Bill
  6. They did deserve a cold beer for their efforts. I am waiting for the OP Brianreed to get back to us and see if it was just a bad sensor. There was a guy at one of the rallys last year preshure washing peoples black and gray tanks. So there are people out there doing that kind of service. Bill
  7. Call the local Freightliner shop. They probably have some in stock. The local shop always has some on display in the parts department. Bill
  8. You could make money if you would show the video of how you drove the RV to get more agitation. The soap and calgon as I suggested before would probably do more good. How is this out of context? By the way adding more water will raise the ice so it doesn't come in contact with the stuff stuck on the bottom. Bill
  9. Welcome to the forum. Yes, Rev Group would be the best have your serial number handy. Bill
  10. You realise you can look at the road using Google street view? That close I have taken the toad and pre driven it including the new campground. Bill
  11. Well they did push the electrical box under the RV out of the direct rain. Bill
  12. This guy has a couple of videos out that show the reality of your black tank. I think you will find them informative. Bill
  13. Yes we had a cold spell last couple of days but should be close to 80 today. I mowed the lawn yesterday. Ok truth is I had the lawn crew mow. They are on the job so I can leave town at any time and not worry about mowing. We have had the coach out for a short rally way out in Aledo Texas . But that was only 5 days last month. Joe, you off the grid campers know no limits. Bill
  14. The ice trick sounds good but is a fantasy as the ice is just floating in the water(good video on youtube) and the ice realey does not do anything. I don't use chemicals all the time but if you have a layer of sludge(You need to look and see, maybe use a probe) The chemicals will help break up the sludge. Well so will Dawn dish washing soap and some Calgon water softener. The black tank is a "holding tank" not a septic system. Get the clear section of 3" pipe so you can see what is coming out. Bill
  15. Several things come to mind. First you are LUCKY it still drains as that makes it more unpleasant to fix. I would NOT trust the tank level sensors. They are almost always wrong. I would look down the toilet with a bright light and see what is going on/is it realey 1/4 full? Do you have a clear elbow or clear piece of 3" pipe so you can see what the water coming out looks like. http://www.campingworld.com/45-degree-clear-hose-adapter?rrec=true They come in different configurations so you can find one that works. Now fill the black tank about 3/4 full and add a couple of packets of the chemicals to break up waste. http://www.campingworld.com/search?keyword=black+tank+chemicals it woulden't hurt to "over treat" the tank to get it clean. Would be nice if you could drive it around a little to agatate the mix. If not just watie a day or so and drain and flush and see how it looks. Bill
  16. The other fun part is when they ask "when will you be back?" and you say I don't know, probably in Sept or October. Anything been heard from the OP? Bill
  17. I believe my EZ-Pass is tied to a credit card and replenishes pretty much instantly. The George Washington (before I had a pass) was $76.00 cash only. Bill
  18. Welcome to the forum. I saved over $100.00 each off the Michelin sale price going with the Continentals. $600.00+ savings off the Michelin discount price is worth it to me. Ride great. Bill
  19. Welcome to the forum. I see where NC works with EZ-Pass but EZ-Pass still doesn't work in Florida. https://www.sunpass.com/participatingAgencies Bill Richard, I am not shure $40.00 would be enough, going from DC to RI in a day I have racked over $100.00 in tolls. Especially the time I got to go over the George Washington Bridge. Don't go over the GW go around to the Tappan Z. Texas still doesn't have interoperability with EZ-Pass. Bill
  20. Well welcome to the forum. To many variables such as what does it weigh, how do you drive, what way is the wind blowing? Good guess is 4.5 to 8.5 mpg.Go for a drive and let us know what you get. Bill
  21. Why haven't you called FMCAssist? Call Seven Corners (877) 202-4176 or (317) 582-2619 (collect from Mexico) Bill
  22. Have you ever backed up with the jeep attached, even just a couple of feet? Bill
  23. October should be great. this should give you an idea of activity's, this is the 2017 Visitors Guide. https://www.mydigitalpublication.com/publication/?i=440786#{"issue_id":440786,"page":2} Bill
